You’ve heard the tale of the tortoise and the hare – the two critters who taught us “steady progress wins the race.” Their lesson isn’t exclusive to childhood stories; it’s also relevant to building and protecting wealth.
We’re not going to start referring to ourselves as “the tortoises of the wealth management world,” though when it comes to market cycles, we’ve been around the track a few times.
